Found it, It sorta still works. Looks like someone moved a dataset on
me for the overlays.<br>
<br>
The first drill level works though.<br>

<br>
Maybe I'll go and fix it tomorrow . . . Get the drilldown to work all
the way in.<br>
<br>
Geez, I forgot how fast it ran . . . .Also, I was off on the year I did
it, Looks like around 2002 or 2003, since these images were from
2001. :c) Sure seems like such a long time ago . . . . .<br>

Hmmm, I don't know how to reply to this, exactly. It's going to sound
like I'm tooting my own horn, but . . .<br>
<br>
I actually have a tiled based application from 98 or 99 ( that I think
it is still running to, I'll check tomorrow) It's on the basic side
related to Googles stuff, but it worked very nicely for the time it was
built. There are sure to be others out there somewhere. I can't
believe my concoction was the only stuff out there doing stuff like
this.<br>

It seems there is no way to stop this "crazy" race of patents.

<pre wrap="">I guess is up to the guys in the US to show prior art, at least they
are in a position to file the relevant docs.
Autodesk should be quite aware of that, since they have software in that
niche.
Also, does not UMN Mapserver predates google on this?

I'm not aware of any web interface which sent requests for batches of
tiles before Google Maps. The ones I'm aware of now are:
* OpenLayers, originally started working on around Where 2.0 1
* ka-Map, started around the same time -- after February 2005 (patent)
* MapGuide, I think, which has tile batch requests
* I've heard info about ESRI's new stuff doing the same thing.
So, as far as the first claim of the patent that Google was granted
("Digital Mapping Service" or whatever), I'm not aware of anything that
predates their patent application in Feb 2005. I certainly know that it
seemed novel to everyone when it came out.
